Troubleshooting

Light will not turn on.

Ensure the battery is correctly inserted and fully charged. Check the power button and try a different battery if available.

Touchscreen is unresponsive.

Power cycle the light by turning it off and on again. Ensure the screen is clean and free from debris. If the issue persists, perform a factory reset via the settings menu.

App cannot connect to the light.

Make sure Bluetooth is enabled on your mobile device and that the light is powered on. Try closing and reopening the Rotolight app. Ensure the light is within Bluetooth range. Check for app updates.

Strobe recycle time is not instant.

Verify that the light is set to strobe mode and not a continuous mode. Ensure the battery has sufficient charge. High burst rates may impact recycle time depending on power output.
